This was the view just inside tunnel 1 on the Elroy Sparta trail. The trail was built on an old railroad path that went through three tunnels with a combined length of 1.36 miles. The rain from the previous night combined with the heat made the air around the tunnels hazy with fog. Bikes are walked through these tunnels, and the cool air was a welcome relief. Approaching the second tunnel, I was actual able to smell the tunnel air before I rounded the bend and saw the tunnel entrance. In the third and longest tunnel, I just stopped in the middle, turned off my light and listened to the water drip in the dark of the tunnel. Greg, thanks for the tip on taking this trail, it was really, really cool.
